Default s8er95z here's my timeslip you called me out on

I had posted on another thread that i ran a 14.3 in a auto with no traction and he called me out on the b.s. flag so here is my timeslip in the link below and no im not modded. First of all i would like you to know that i was running on 19inch tires 245/35 stern wheels that are heavy as hell but i love them anyways they weight some where in the 30 lbs range each. Not only that i wasnt able to go around the water box everytime so my tires where wet and i didnt do a burnout to dry my tires anyone that runs at temple raceway in texas should be able to tell you this. Also keep in mind this was my very first time ever racing at a damn drag strip i didnt even know how the staging lights worked or anything i was so damn confused. For the people that didnt call bs can you please help me run a better time my 60ft is horrible i know i need work where else can i improve. I love when people raise the b.s. flag lol.

i didnt know that 14.3 was so horrible of a time for my first time ever drag racing at a dragstrip with heavy 19's and water soaked tires before the run. Anyways do you have any advice to get me to a lower time or are you just wanting to state your opinion. I dont have problem admitting my times anyhow especially my first time out at the track maybe you have to much pride that could get you into trouble. Do you have a timeslip that you could post i would really like to see what you are running i hope something extremely great with those statements. I use to live in newjersey right next to atco raceway if your running really good times its because your at that track. Im running in texas huge difference in humidity and weather bud As far as him calling bs i have no clue. The weird thing about it is that alberto agreed with him and ive read his posts he seems intelligent and is a good driver. Another thing i didnt say that i ran a super good time i put this on another thread where a z member was running 14.7 and i just stated that i ran a 14.3 with alot of traction issues so he should for sure should be running better times than that.

Called BS on your time?? Uh no....

Called BS on your statement of "I ran a 14.3 with no traction"... erm..well sorta.

You ran what you ran.. if you go back and read a little slower you will see I called your 'no traction' comment an exaggeration. Hardly warranting a single-out post...but I guess I can handle being 'shown up' in a public forum.

Again... not a dig and you posting to help a member is great. I was merely commenting that you overstated your traction difficulties.

Don't worry about these guys man. Just practice and you'll get better. Your dick's not going to shrink because you're not in the 13's.

I've been around a little while now.. you don't survive on sites where you don't drive the vehicle of choice if you spout your mouth off every time someone posts. I wasn't trying to be a dick..it just happens I guess.
